Well, this is a start and hope other companies follow, though there is a piece in WaPo saying that advertiser boycotts are not always successful. They specifically mentioned Keurig & Volvo changing their minds after pulling out of even more disgusting creature named Hannity .

Good news, Raj. That snake needs to be banished to NRA-tv or EIB.

Ingraham takes a week off in an attempt to staunch the flow of advertisers from her toxic show.

Bye - bye, Laura. Give my regards to Bill-O and the rest of the losers at the 'Bullshyte Mountain' (Faux News) retirement home for lechers and sick feckers who don't know when enough is enough.
I hope that these young folk keep the heat turned up this year and all through the '20s.
Bravisimo, young people!

Karma's a bitch...just like Ingraham. It's crazy how modern American conservatism conflates malicious and insufferable nastiness with conservatism.

Laura Ingraham ran into a buzz saw with her GPA comment, rather profoundly stupid from a single mom* with children who may also have college aspirations. Getting admitted to good universities is very traumatic experience for most seniors and to pick on them at this time of vulnerability is extremely cruel. She is now paying the price, yet pretends to be a good Christian and taking a break for Easter a week later.
Even her apology to Hogg was insincere and he called her on it. Good riddance.
* Ms. Ingraham has been engaged twice in the past and struck out. Wonder why.

As I have mentioned before, does not take a lot of money to support student activism not to mention that these kids are wizards with smart phones and social media. The so called conservatives who support Roy Moore, Joe Arpaio and the Dotard are seriously underestimating the Never Again movement and the Parkland driven kids have a very powerful talking point, "it's our lives we are talking about".

Hooray for our youth!
These students found the intersection between social media and political activism and will make positive change happen.

NRA board member and conservative rocker Ted Nugent blasted the survivors of the Parkland school shooting, claiming there is “irrefutable” evidence that “they have no soul.”
During an appearance on The Joe Pags Show, the Republican guitarist described the student gun reform advocates “as mushy brained children who have been fed lies.”
“They’re actually committing spiritual suicide because everything they recommend will cause more death and mayhem,” Nugent continued. “Guaranteed.”

That sounds like a direct threat. In normal times, the FBI would be investigating.
